    To compare the two classes, the Coefficient of Variation (COV) can be used.

    The formula for COV is this:

    C = s / x

    where s is the standard deviation and x is the mean

    For the first class:

    C1 = 10.2 / 75.5

    C1 = 0.1351 (13.51%)

    For the second class:

    C2 = 22.5 / 75.5

    C2 = 0.2980 (29.80%)

    The COV is a test of homogeneity. Looking at the values, the first class has more students having a grade closer to the average than the second class.
